No Knokback Resistance On Netherite armor
Go to files
Removes Netherite armor's knockback resistance so Wind Charges launch you to full height while preserving vanilla armor toughness and defense via a background script.
Master the wind without sacrificing your defense.
In Minecraft 1.21+, Wind Charges have revolutionized movement, but Netherite’s natural Knockback Resistance often acts as a "weight," preventing players from reaching maximum launch heights. This addon removes that resistance, allowing you to enjoy the full mobility of Wind Charges while staying fully armored.
Technical Precision & Parity
Unlike basic item edits that can sometimes glitch armor stats, this addon uses a custom script to ensure gameplay parity. Due to technical limitations in how armor attributes are handled, Armor Toughness is manually injected via a background script. This ensures that the armor's toughness matches vanilla values, even though knockback resistance has been removed.
The "Zombie Test" (Proven Protection)
To ensure this addon is survival-ready and balanced, rigorous combat testing was conducted.
Scenario: Two players—one wearing a full set of vanilla Netherite armor and one wearing the modified set—were attacked by a zombie to compare damage and survival. The test measured the outcome when the zombie died.
Result: After the attack sequence, both players were left with exactly 4.5 hearts.
Verification: Using this addon produced identical results—the player remained at 4.5 hearts. This demonstrates that mobility is increased while defensive power remains equivalent to the base game.
Key Features
- Maximum Launch Power: Removes the "heavy" feel of Netherite, allowing for higher Wind Charge jumps and improved parkour.
- Script-Matched Toughness: A background script maintains vanilla armor toughness to preserve protection values.
- Lightweight & Efficient: Optimized to run smoothly without affecting performance.
- Combat Balanced: Designed for players who want endgame protection without losing new movement mechanics.
Short Summary
Tired of Netherite armor dampening your Wind Charge jumps? This addon removes Knockback Resistance while using a precision script to keep Armor Toughness identical to vanilla. Verified by combat testing (4.5 hearts remaining), this tweak enables high-mobility endgame play.
